Its my last chemo and i ring the bell whoop whoop. It hadnt been easy but remained so positive i think i had every side affect, first chemo ended up in hospital with sepsis , 2nd chemo easier, 3rd chemo awful another infection chemo breaking skin down, today my last one but start bone infusions todsy also the one thing im dreading. Have phesgo till next september and start letrozel in january . What a journey. Im greatful to all my team and everyone on this forum. Good luck to all you pink ladies xxx
Well done…I’m ringing that bell for you too
Our story sounds very similar. Stage two with lymph nodes involved. Four months of the strongest chemotherapy followed by thirty treatments of radiation. Now on versenio and letrozole. I have many side effects.Lethargy abdominal pain itchiness boob pain shooting jabs. What can I do but go one day after the next and pray that I find myself in a good place everyday. I know my bell ringing when I was done with treatment was sort of anti.Climactic. I won’t feel like i’m a survivor until at least five years pass. I pray that the medications leave my heart lungs kidney alone… I pray for you and for everybody reading this entry.
Thank you, it is very traumatic i had mastectomy full node clearance in july . I was on tc chemo 3 weekly cycles the side affects have been brutal. Im on phesgo until next september and bone infusions for 3 years. I start letrizol in january. Ive been positive all the way through one day at a time, i feel absolutely ecstatic at ringing the bell as the hardest part if the treatment is over. I dint need radiotherapy as had mastectomy . I hope uour treatment goes well sending love xx
